Abstract

Movie and film adaptations of written media have been around since the early 20th century, and they remain popular to this day. For my capstone enhancement, I will be making a screenplay adaptation of my Creative Writing capstone, a short story called Shooting Stars. This adaptation will be made of multiple, smaller screenplays (akin to an episodic series). I will also highlight the differences between writing a short story and writing a screenplay with an essay.
